WHAT TO DO.

The discussion of what to do with the
surplus in the Treasury and what to do in
order to prevent the future accumulation
of money in the Treasury, forcibly recalls
General Hancock's declaration that the
tariff was local question and should be
left for Congress to settle. 1t was claim
ed that this declaration Of General Hen-
cock defeated him for the presidency, land
perhaps it did; but there was much OF
solemn truth in the words of the soldier
statesman. The tariff affects the self.
interest of its benefcisries and builds up
q compact aggressive force among those
who profit by it. The purchase OF nock
of sheep by tariff-for-revenue Demo
GRAFT in Texas converts him into 8
bowling protectionist of american
lsbor," while he continues to employ
cheap Mexican herdsmen. The sugar
planter and the rice grower are moved by
the same principle to join hands with the
manufacturers of iron and cotton and
wooden goods to fasten the burden OF
high tariff on the farmer, which grinds to
the dust while hidden under the form OF
indirect taxation.
The disposition of the Treasury surplus
and the prevention OF future accumula-
ton is engrossing the best thought
Of the country, and as the obvious pre-

Correspondence of the Gazette.
RocKLAND, TEX, Oct. 16.-The people
of this county are rather indignant over
the recent removal OF Captain j. P.
Clough from the mail service on the
Sabine and East Texas Railroad. 1t is
thought by many that he has fallen q
victim to private vengeance, and that his
removae vas precipttated by the action OF
some representative demagogue, whose
ingenious trickery HIS disregarded the
choice Of his constituency.
The captain is patriotic Democrat
who fought bravely for the "lost cause, u
and whose seniority in the mail service
demands that he should have been re
tanned in his position.
j M Lewis, ex-deputy internal rev.
enue collector of this district, died at hi'
home in Woodville on last Wednesday
evening He was well liked by all whC
knew him, and he has left host O
friends to mourn his departure.

vention of future accumulation lies in q
reduction of the public revenues, the
great question is, whether that reduction
shall be effected by doing away with the
internal revenue taxes or by reducing the
tariff on manufactured goods. While the
western and southern farmer wants
cheaper goods and cheaper bagging and
ties, the following, from Massachusetts,
paper, shows what the demand is among
the people who are benefited by a high
tariff:
"There seems to be stringency in the
money market, although the surplus in
the Treasury is enormous. The Comp
troller made q call for bonds few days
ago, and it resulted in a slight fall OF the
rate, vet the fact remains that the people
cannot get money enough to do business,
while the Treasury is grooming with it
Quite portion of this surplus is raised
from the tax on whisky, beer and tooac-
co. We see no reason why these articles
should be taxed for revenue. Let the
tax be swept away altogether, with all in
ternal revenue taxes, or let II
be raised so that 1t will restrict
the sale. At present the tax only
helps the dealer, and has no effect
whatever on the consumer except to
somewha. increase his expenses. BY the
way, speaking of the Treasury surplus, il
is 3 matter that requires no discussion OF
conflict of opinion. Ask nine-tenths OF
the business men of the country what
should be done and the answer will be
plain and unequivocal: Increase the
duties on articles that now compete with
American products SO that they will be
protective, abolish ell internal revenue
taxes, continue to call in bonds, no mat
ter if q premium be paid for them, and in
crease appropriations for river and har-
Dor defenses."
This demand of the east will be
strengthened by the popular prejudice
against internal revenue taxes and
by selfish interests of wool, rice, sugar
and isolated iron districts in the
south. The surplus must go, but that
surplus doesn't injure the victim of s
high tariff so much as it does the benefi
ciary of it; but the protectionists are Or
gsnized and the farmer reviles an inter
nal revenue tax. The outlook for the tri'
umph of selfish interests must be very
pleasant to them.

A wa.herwoman Tax.
Philadeldhia Record

One of the most complete and meaneSt
monopolies nourished by tariff taxation
is the sheet-zinc monopoly, which is in
the hands of wealthy company estab-
lished at La Sale, Ill. This combine
ton dominates the sheet-Zpc trade OF
the country. It's method, which is dis
closed in an article printed elsewhere, is
q very simple one. It breaks down COM
petition by underselliDg the market,
knowing that if it should lose 100000
in one year it could, with the assistance
of the tariff duty of % cents per pound,
secure 81. 900 900 the next year.
Sheet zinc Is Of almost universal use,
but is mainly used by people of moderate
means. 1t is put under stoves to protect
the floor, and as security against fire; II
is the material out OF which the cheaper
bath tubs are made, and it is OF almost
universal use for washboards on which
clothes are rubbed IN the process OF
| washing them. 1t is cheaper and better
| for these and other like purposes than
any like material; but il it should cost
less it would enter largely into other
uses.
But why should the householders and
washer women of the country be unnec
essarily taxed on q necessary article in
order to maintain this impudent Illinois
monopoly, which refuses to share its
tariff advantage with other manufacturers
and dictates prices to its customers witt
the insolent Indifference of mastery
Possibly it may pay its employees gooC
wages; but 1t is doubtful If they get .
penny more than they might earn at othel
employment.
Wage-earners throughout the countr.
are taxed and defrauded to the extent o
this tax on sheet zinc, for the importa
tions ere very trifing and bring hardly
any revenue to the National Treasury
The tariff is for the benz fl of q singl,
monopoly, and not for any other pur
pose

ACCORDING TO the Houston Post, there
are newspapers and rumors of newspe-
pers in Texas st this time. From late
issue of the Post we take these "neWs'
paper rumors:" =
A stock company to run a big paper at Waco
is talked of.
1t is rumored that new morning daily, with
big capital, is to be started az DsllRs. The peo-
pie of Dallas SO the story goes, resent the idea
of their leading paper being made the tender
to the Galveston News.
Neg .tiaions are pending for the formation
of stock company at Austin to purchase and
operate the Daily State man. The company
wi have some Of the leading men of the city
IN it, and. L. is promised, will radically pprove
the Stat"sm n.
The Eve-ing Dispatch is autho thy for the
statement that the Galveston News manage
ment contemplate the establishment of s
branch paper at Austin.

REFERRING to the letter addressed to
Governor Ross by the settlers who were
threatened with eviction from the enclos
ure of the Rocking Chair Ranch in the
Panhandle, the Austin Dispatch says:
Rather, the Dlspatch opines, that If real cause
for al rm existed and the settlers were honestly
apprehensive of eviction, measures would have
been adopted by tn ,se whose Interests were in
lie pardy, to address themselves directly to
Governor ,ss, and not through The medium Of
public Dewspap or known TO be in opposition
to the land laws of the state and the land policy
of the esent administration.
The Dispatch prints the letter addressed
to the Governor by the settlers,
and should have seen thst Governor r )ss
was addressed "directly." TIE Ga
zETTE simply printed the appeal that was
made to Governor Ross. The trouble is,
that the lease law advocates
have so long deluded themselves
with the idea, that it is the bull
lionaires who oppose The lease law, that
they see bug under every chip. The
lease law advocates are monomaniscs on
the subject OF "barons" and the dear
"little children's grass" and hence it is
that public sentiment has been manipu
lated to the benefit OF the very bullion
aires 50 much dreaded by the people. II
is high time to lay aside prejudice and
consider land policy for Texas in the
light of experience, reason, and due
regard for the welfare of the state.
